Socialism atrophies everyone and everything around it. Western Europe is on a collision course with Islam and soft men aren't up to hard times.

Had the EU just stopped and remained a trade organization and not a quasi government, that wouldn't have happened, in my view.
Something else worth considering is how the push for the EU has chipped away at national individualism, if that makes sense. You saw it with Brexit and I think other countries are waking up to how they sold their national soul to an ideal that won't work. Sooner rather than later enough Europeans are going to wake up to what a FUBAR situation they are in and start taking steps to swing this back their direction.

Not sure I agree. Most of the Euros I have talked with over the years love the EU. Most think Brexit was a dumb idea. They being in this free trade, free movement zone where Germany sends them a crapton of money.

They were taken by the Marxists before us, so other than a vocal minority, national identity is looked down upon.

Good post about France.


This is pretty wild. Went and looked at the data. Since 2008 the EU GDP has only grown 2% while the US has grown 79%. Their population has grown 2% as well so they are just treading water.

Our population has grown ~8%.

WOW.

You have to assume that their historically more cradle to grave mentality has hindered them on top of everything else he mentioned.

Good article about how the US has turned most of the rest of the world into vassal states without them even realizing it happened.

Quote:

This is why the the Empire of Chaos a.k.a the United States of America is ripping apart of the fabric of Eurasia. Brexit, Russia-EU war, India-China conflict, attempts to decouple Europe from China etc. are all part of this game.
Remarkably, the US with less than 5% of the world's population has managed to hypnotize much of the world into submission. Europeans and Ukrainians are willingly dying for the American Empire. Only a few powers like Russia, China and Iran are the lone challengers to America's full-spectrum dominance over the globe.
As British writer and Nobel-prize winner Harold Pinter described America's ruthless foreign policy and hegemony:
"The crimes of the United States have been systematic, constant, vicious, remorseless, but very few people have actually talked about them. You have to hand it to America. It has exercised a quite clinical manipulation of power worldwide while masquerading as a force for universal good. It's a brilliant, even witty, highly successful act of hypnosis."
"U.S. foreign policy is best defined as follows: kiss my arse or I'll kick your head in. It is as simple and as crude as that. What is interesting about it is that it's so incredibly successful. It possesses the structures of disinformation, use of rhetoric, distortion of language, which are very persuasive, but are actually a pack of lies. It is very successful propaganda. They have the money, they have the technology, they have all the means to get away with it, and they do."

It's arguable that the creation and spread of the BRICS is in response to this, and if they can kick out the dollar ar reserve currency status, they no longer must bend the knee to the US.

First off, France has always had less than ideal relations with the US following WWII. DeGaulle, whose butt we saved, hated the US.

Quote:

In 1966, President Charles DeGaulle took France out of NATO and ordered all U.S. troops removed from his country. President Lyndon Johnson told Secretary of State Dean Rusk to ask DeGaulle if his order included the 60,000 American soldiers buried in France during World War I and World War II. The French president was so embarrassed he got up and left without comment.

It was not our fault that Europe laid in ruins with virtually no economic activity after WWII. We gave them the Marshall Plan. The only reason they have needed to bend any knee to the US was because we funded NATO and they refused to do so.

The french are an embarrassment.

I can't remember which German it was but when asked about what he thought about the French resistance and how effective it was he responded by saying "we didn't know the French were resisting". We stopped dropping weapons to the resistance sometime in 1943 because by most accounts they only used the supplies to fight rival resistance groups. Stalinists vs. Trotskyists vs. DeGaullists.

And then after the war the reports of French theft of aid dollars is also legendary.

Then they threatened to join the Soviet Sphere over Vietnam.

Just time after time after time they have proven their worthlessness.

For now maybe but when they wake up to the sound of the call to prayer and perhaps their daughters (if anybody is having kids anymore) are subjugated to the whims of Islam then perhaps they may not like it.

Who knows. I'm not optimistic about the average, western citizen. They are weak willed, uneducated and base morals on whatever whim is easiest sold by social media. By the time most people care - it will be too late and folks will die.

You stated exactly what my response was going to be to your first paragraph.

Like all naive people, by the time the Euros realize they've been overrun, it will be too late.

Quote:

Two-thirds of the people of France would support the end of the Fifth Republic, as the government of President Emmanuel Macron continues to fail to restore social order in the country.

While the streets of France have descended into scenes similar to those seen in violent revolutions not witnessed in supposedly stable Western European countries for some time, the French public is apparently prepared to back a political revolution of their own, with a majority supporting the abolition of the republic that has governed the country since 1958, the fifth such republic since the violent revolution which abolished the Bourbon Monarchy in 1792.
Quote:

The Fifth Republic, ushered in by Charles de Gaulle, is the second-longest lasting republic in France since the Third Republic, which was formed following the fall of Emperor Napoleon III in 1870. Yet, despite its relative longevity, increasing political instability and a growing sense of division between the public and political elites in Paris have apparently soured the people on the Fifth Republic.
Quote:

According to a survey conducted by Ifop and Fiducial found that 67 per cent of the public would support the formation of a Sixth Republic with a new constitution based upon a parliamentary system and proportional representation, compared to just 33 per cent who would oppose the fundamentally revolutionary move.
Did not know this.

Quote:

With the departure of the United Kingdom, France currently stands alone in the European Union as the only country to not have some form of proportional representation, using a system that makes it more difficult for parties outside of the established mainstream to wield parliamentary power. This appears to have had the effect of leaving millions of French men and women feeling as though their voices are ignored by the ruling elite.
Quote:

A move to proportional representation would likely see an increase in power for figures such as leftist leader Jean-Luc Mlenchon as well as former populist presidential candidate Marine Le Pen. Perhaps it is unsurprising then, that both the so-called far-left and far-right of French politics both align in supporting such a measure.

Le Pen has argued for a split proportional system under which 66 per cent of lawmakers would be elected based upon a pure popular vote, while the remaining third would be awarded to the party victor to prevent political instability. The populist firebrand has said that such a system would allow a "fair representation of the sensitivities that are expressed in the country."

From same article, supra.

Quote:

The tinderbox that is ethnic relations in France burst into literal flames just hours after the killing and so far has seen over 1,000 buildings set on fire, 5,600 vehicles destroyed, and over 3,300 people mostly teenagers arrested since the riots began last week. Radical rioters even attempted a direct assassination against a mayor of a French suburb, injuring his wife and child as they fled for their lives.

In 2021, a letter signed by 20 former French generals, including the former Commandant of the French Foreign Legion Christian Piquemal, warned that multiculturalism and increased radicalisation against the French state among migrant communities could lead to a civil war.

"Today, some talk about racialism, indigenism, and decolonial theories. But through these terms, it is a race war that these hateful and fanatical partisans want. They despise our country, its traditions, its culture, and want to see it dissolve by ripping off its past and history," the letter said.

My Dad was stationed in Germany at that time. The notice for all U.S. bases/posts to be shut down was very short. There was a flood of U.S. military personnel and their families sent to other bases/posts throughout Europe. The French Garrison was down the road was abandoned seemingly overnight.

Our commanding officers followed the letter of the law in France. All buildings were to be turned over to the French. Just to piss on DeGaulle's leg, maintenance crews removed all electric wall switches/outlets, hand wash sinks, toilets, overhead lighting and more. Was kind of comical.

That said, I respect the fact that France seemingly decided to stand on their own two legs and not continue to rely on U.S. forces.

Europeans are already acclimated to a lower standard of living than Americans. And they've imported millions of poor people from Africa that are a huge burden on their government and resources. The refugees don't work and get food and money from the government. When the food and money runs out, there will be civil unrest, from a violent foreign population.

It's not sustainable. Their economies and governments cannot support the free loading immigrants. The European society as we have known it in the 20th century will collapse into civil unrest and poverty.

The only solution is for Europe to cut off government benefits and food for immigrants, and hope many of them leave once the freebies go away. But they will get violent and riot when their freebies are cut off. Or more extreme, hatch a plan to re-integrate the migrants back to Africa. That will cause a civil war / skirmishes. Many migrants are there to conquer Europe. Many have a religious mission. They won't leave peacefully.

There is no easy path forward. Europe will be lost to 3rd world violent culture and corruption if they do nothing. Any path towards preserving civilized western society will be painful as well.

What is happening in France is terrible, but it serves them right. I recall taking a bus trip through France in the mid '60s and seeing just how much these losers hate Americans.

Probably more accurate to say Western Europe, specifically. Eastern Europe may hold out a bit longer because they have and will go to the right much more easily than France or Germany who have largely neutered themselves, especially Germany. And both have large Muslim populations by comparison - absolute and percentage wise. Those two are in serious trouble.

Germany is already sucking wind economically. Worst economy in Europe with a shrinking GDP. They are in a recession because of their idiotic energy policy and over reliance on manufacturing as a high cost country.
